Taking clones and starting them means you want a genetic duplicate of the mother. Same growth rate under the same conditions, etc.
Seeds can throw in some genetic variation so you wouldn't know if you you were getting a valid comparison of the growth rate of two different plants.
If you are growing outdoors it can be tricky cutting down a 24 hour indoor light cycle clone to an outdoor sun schedule without causing early flowering and then regeneration which screws up the plant.
For me seeds work best, I overplant and pick out the best of the seedlings to develop into monsters.
